LMDZ.GENERIC directory layout and contents

This page describes the directory structure of the Genric physics package and its main contents

The LMDZ.GENERIC directory

Once download from the svn server, the LMDZ.GENERIC directory contents should be something like:

deftank                               Making_New_Corrk_Directories.pdf
DOC                                   ManualGCM_GENERIC.pdf
How_to_add_an_aerosol_to_the_GCM.pdf  patch_large_domains
libf                                  README
Licence_CeCILL_V2-en.txt              utilities
Licence_CeCILL_V2-fr.txt

Where the noteworthy elements are:

• the ManualGCM_GENERIC.pdf, How_to_add_an_aerosol_to_the_GCM.pdf and Making_New_Corrk_Directories.pdf pdf documents containing some information on the model and how to use it (somewhat obsolete, should be superseded by this MediaWiki site)
• the DOC directory contains LaTeX files and figures used to generate ManualGCM_GENERIC.pdf
• the README file which contains dated brief comments about changes in the code
• the libf directory which contains the Fortran source code (see dedicated section below)
• the utilities directory which contains some post-processing tools (see dedicated section below).
• the deftank directory which contains examples of model input files (see dedicated section below).
